In this paper, we address the problem of monocular depth estimation when only a limited number of training image-depth pairs are available. To achieve a high regression accuracy, the state-of-the-art estimation methods rely on CNNs trained with a large number of image-depth pairs, which are prohibitively costly or even infeasible to acquire. Aiming to break the curse of such expensive data collections, we propose a semi-supervised adversarial learning framework that only utilizes a small number of image-depth pairs in conjunction with a large number of easily-available monocular images to achieve high performance. In particular, we use one generator to regress the depth and two discriminators to evaluate the predicted depth , i.e., one inspects the image-depth pair while the other inspects the depth channel alone. These two discriminators provide their feedbacks to the generator as the loss to generate more realistic and accurate depth predictions. Experiments show that the proposed approach can (1) improve most state-of-the-art models on the NYUD v2 dataset by effectively leveraging additional unlabeled data sources;(2) reach state-of-the-art accuracy when the training set is small, e.g., on the Make3D dataset;(3) adapt well to an unseen new dataset (Make3D in our case) after training on an annotated dataset (KITTI in our case).

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) assisted semi-grant-free (SGF) transmission has recently received significant research attention due to its outstanding ability of serving grant-free (GF) users with grant-based (GB) users' spectrum, which greatly improves the spectrum efficiency and effectively relieves the massive access problem of 5G and beyond networks. In this paper, we first study the outage performance of the greedy best user scheduling SGF scheme (BU-SGF) by considering the impacts of Rayleigh fading, path loss, and random user locations. In order to tackle the admission fairness problem of the BU-SGF scheme, we propose a fair SGF scheme by applying cumulative distribution function (CDF)-based scheduling (CS-SGF), in which the GF user with the best channel relative to its own statistics will be admitted. Moreover, by employing the theories of order statistics and stochastic geometry, the outage performances of both BU-SGF and CS-SGF schemes are analyzed. Theoretical results show that both schemes can achieve full diversity orders only when the served users' data rate is capped, which severely limits the rate performance of SGF schemes. To further address this issue, we propose a distributed power control strategy to relax such data rate constraint, and derive analytical expressions of the two schemes' outage performances under this strategy. Finally, simulation results validate the fairness performance of the proposed CS-SGF scheme, the effectiveness of the power control strategy, and the accuracy of the theoretical analyses.

—By taking full advantage of computing, Communication and Caching (3C) resources at the network edge, Mobile Edge computing (MEC) is envisioned as one of the key enablers for the next generation network and services. However, current fixed-location MEC architecture may not be able to make real-time decision in dynamic environment, especially in large-scale scenarios. To address this issue, in this paper, a Heterogeneous MEC (H-MEC) architecture is proposed, which is composed of fixed unit, i.e., Ground Stations (GSs) as well as moving nodes, i.e., Ground Vehicles (GVs) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), all with 3C resource enabled. The key challenges in H-MEC, e.g., mobile edge node management, real-time decision making, user association and resource allocation along with the possible Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based solutions are discussed in this paper. In addition, an AI-based joint Resource schEduling (ARE) framework is proposed, with simulation results shown to verify the efficiency of our proposed framework. Copyright © 2020, The Authors.

The evolution of epidemiological parameters, such as instantaneous reproduction number Rt, is important for understanding the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases. Current estimates of time-varying epidemiological parameters often face problems such as lagging observations, averaging inference, and improper quantification of uncertainties. To address these problems, we propose a Bayesian data assimilation framework for time-varying parameter estimation. Specifically, this framework is applied to Rt estimation, resulting in the state-of-the-art 'DARt' system. With DARt, time misalignment caused by lagging observations is tackled by incorporating observation delays into the joint inference of infections and Rt;the drawback of averaging is overcome by instantaneously updating upon new observations and developing a model selection mechanism that captures abrupt changes;the uncertainty is quantified and reduced by employing Bayesian smoothing. We validate the performance of DARt and demonstrate its power in revealing the transmission dynamics of COVID-19. The proposed approach provides a promising solution for accurate and timely estimating transmission dynamics from reported data. Copyright © 2020, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Sleep monitoring plays an important role in many medical applications, including SIDS prevention, care of patients with pressure ulcers, and assistance to patients with sleep apnea, where studies have shown that autonomous and continuous monitoring of sleep postures provides useful information for lowering health risk. Existing systems are designed based on electrocardiogram, cameras and pressure sensors, which are expensive to deploy, intrusive to privacy, or uncomfortable to use. This paper presents TagSheet, the first sleep monitoring system based on passive RFID tags, which provides a convenient, non-intrusive, and comfortable way of monitoring the sleeping postures. It does not require attaching any tag directly to a patient's body. Tags are taped under a bed sheet. With a combination of hierarchical recognition, image processing and polynomial fitting, the proposed system identifies body postures based on the observed variation caused by the patient body to the backscattered signals from tags. The system does not require any personalized data training, making it plug-n-play in use. One additional advantage is that the system can also estimate the patient's respiration rate. This is particularly helpful in assisting patients with sleep apnea. We have implemented a prototype system, and experiments show that the system performs posture identification with an accuracy up to 96.7% and in the meantime it measures the respiration rate with a small error of about 0.7 bpm (breath per minute).

Interaction is a powerful resource for quantum computation. It can be utilized in applications ranging from the verification of quantum algorithms all the way to verifying quantum mechanics itself. Here, we present the first implementation of interactive protocols for proofs of quantumness — which when suitably scaled promise the efficient verification of quantum computational advantage. The key feature that distinguishes these protocols from existing demonstrations of quantum advantage is that the classical verification is efficient and scales polynomially rather than exponentially with the number of qubits. The experimental implementation of such interactive protocols requires the ability to independently measure subsets of qubits in the middle of a quantum circuit and to continue coherent evolution afterwards. This is achieved by spatially isolating target qubits via shuttling, and opens the door to a range of quantum interactive protocols as well as new information processing architectures.

In the era of smart healthcare, integrating multimodal data is essential for improving diagnostic accuracy and enabling personalized care. This study presented a deep learning-based multimodal approach for melanoma detection, leveraging both dermoscopic images and clinical metadata to enhance classification performance. The proposed model integrated a multi-layer convolutional neural network (CNN) to extract image features and combined them with structured metadata, including patient age, gender, and lesion location, through feature-level fusion. The fusion process occurred at the final CNN layer, where high-dimensional image feature vectors were concatenated with processed metadata. The metadata was handled separately through a fully connected neural network comprising multiple dense layers. The final fused representation was passed through additional dense layers, culminating in a classification layer that outputted the probability of melanoma presence. The model was trained end-to-end using the SIIM-ISIC dataset, allowing it to learn a joint representation of image and metadata features for optimal classification. Various data augmentation techniques were applied to dermoscopic images to mitigate class imbalance and improve model robustness. Additionally, exploratory data analysis (EDA) and feature importance analysis were conducted to assess the contribution of each metadata feature to the overall classification. Our fusion-based deep learning architecture outperformed single-modality models, boosting classification accuracy. The presented model achieved an accuracy of 94.5% and an overall F1-score of 0.94, validating its effectiveness in melanoma detection. This study aims to highlight the potential of deep learning-based multimodal fusion in enhancing diagnostic precision, offering a scalable and reliable solution for improved melanoma detection in smart healthcare systems.

The exponential growth of astronomical literature poses significant challenges for researchers navigating and synthesizing general insights or even domain-specific knowledge. We present pathfinder, a machine learning framework designed to enable literature review and knowledge discovery in astronomy, focusing on semantic searching with natural language instead of syntactic searches with key-words. Utilizing state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) and a corpus of 350,000 peer-reviewed papers from the Astrophysics Data System (ADS), pathfinder offers an innovative approach to scientific inquiry and literature exploration. Our framework couples advanced retrieval techniques with LLM-based synthesis to search astronomical literature by semantic context as a complement to currently existing methods that use key-words or citation graphs. It addresses complexities of jargon, named entities, and temporal aspects through time-based and citation-based weighting schemes. We demonstrate the tool’s versatility through case studies, showcasing its application in various research scenarios. The system’s performance is evaluated using custom benchmarks, including single-paper and multi-paper tasks. Beyond literature review, pathfinder offers unique capabilities for reformatting answers in ways that are accessible to various audiences (e.g. in a different language or as simplified text), visualizing research landscapes, and tracking the impact of observatories and methodologies. This tool represents a significant advancement in applying AI to astronomical research, aiding researchers at all career stages in navigating modern astronomy literature. © 2024, CC BY.
